[Bug 1257186] Re: memory leakage messages

[Robie Basak]

Reproduced on a fresh Trusty cloud image. Steps to reproduce:

1. apt-get install libpam-smbpass
2. sudo passwd ubuntu

Expected result:

Enter new UNIX password:

Actual result:

no talloc stackframe at ../source3/param/loadparm.c:4864, leaking memory
Enter new UNIX password: 

This should help with verifying a fix.

Title:
  memory leakage messages

Status in Samba:
  In Progress
Status in “samba” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  This message appears a lot as of a recent update to samba (Trusty
  development branch):

  no talloc stackframe at ../source3/param/loadparm.c:4831, leaking
  memory

  From this upstream bug report, I am lead to believe the issue is in
  libpam-smbpass, but I don't really know for sure.

  I am filing this bug report mainly so that I can refer to it on the
  testing tracker as an issue, while still setting the test case to
  pass. Note that other than the error message itself, I am not aware of
  any bad side effect.
